[Em] [E]
[Em]
[E] [Em]
Imagine you a summer day, a time or place where children play [Am] and having fun.
[E] And where ten little birds are singing high up in the sky just for [Am] you, for you alone.
[Bm] [Am] Nothing moves, nothing [Bm] proves there's something wrong.
And [Am] no one seems to care [E] what's going on.
[Em]
[Gm] [E] [Em]
You lay down and close your eyes and want to sleep for a little [A] while.
[Am] And hey, [E] but after quite a time you start to find the sound of [A] guns and bombs and [Am] a war machine.
And [Bm] plain, you don't [A] understand [Am] what's going [Bm] on.
Though you never [Am] thought there would be war on a [Em] day like today.
You see the people running, you see them hide, but what's to [A] use a mushroom [Am] cloud?
It's sinking overhead, [Em] I don't know about [A] life [Am] before.
[Bm]
[Am] Dreaming, [Bm] yes I'm dreaming
[Am] on a [Em] day like today.
[C] [D] Don't make the dream [Em] ever real.
Don't [C] let them do this.
[D] Please make them see [Em] that it's all wrong.
Save the
[C] children, [D] save the world [Em] for the second hero she will.
A day like [C] today.
[D] Let it be a
[C] day like [B] yesterday.

[C] Don't make me suffer.
[D] Don't make this dream [Em] ever real.
Don't [C] let them do this.
[D] Please, please [Em] make them see.
Save, save [C] all children, [D] save the world [Em] for the second hero.
Not a day, a [C] day like today.
[D] [Em] Let it be a day like yesterday.
[Gm] [E]

Imagine you a summer day, a time, a place where children [E] play.
On a day like today.
